Family - Health

Beginning Again

L of L

From time to time a fresh start is good. After six years of blogging I am beginning again on a new website. I will continue to focus on family, home and health. In addition to my nursing experience, I have spent innumerable hours researching health issues. My family has experienced vaccine reactions, food allergies, cancer and fibromyalgia. Through the years of raising a family I have wondered about the changes in general health of children. It is different from my generation.

During my work in the hospital I have learned that not all interventions are necessary. Medications and treatments have side effects. Individuals and parents are best served by being well informed about the risks and side effects. Yes, informed consent. And so I will speak up and raise questions about some aspects of health care.

In caring for my family I have looked at ways to support health with diet and lifestyle. I have depended on God’s word for wisdom and guidance.  I will share my experiences and recipes, along with devotional thoughts.

Please take a few minutes to look around. I have kept some of the most popular posts from my previous blog. Look for them under the menu headings. Notice that you can subscribe to my blog. You can follow me on facebook, twitter or instagram.
